DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Other services in Walton Elm
Different materials, different repairs
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Use a chopping board
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Do not knock pans against the edge
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Walton Elm use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is normally far better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually.
